PEIZES 



Six months" subscription to Home and Flow- 

 ers for first complete list. 



Three three-months" subscriptions will be 

 awarded among those sending partial lists. 



Fifty cents for the first perfect answer to the 

 anagram story. 



CHAT 



The anagram story is really a fine puzzle, 

 and will be found to make good sense when once 

 you get the right words, and we will say that 

 the first two words after preacher is his name, 

 and the last lot of dashes are the answer to the 

 puzzle without being transposed. 



As the puzzles are still coming in in competi- 

 tion to our last month"s offer, we shall hold the 

 contest open until next month. Y^e have re- 

 ceived many good cons, and all will appear in 

 time. 



Y'e have sent out several hundred cards which 

 will give our friends a chance to get this paper 

 at a reduced rate, and trust those who may now 

 be subscribers will try to interest a friend to 

 use the card and join our band. 



By perfect answer to the anagram story we 

 mean all the words put in so the story will be 

 complete. Aunt Eunice.
